presence of propyl gallate. These observations strongly indicate the suitability of

the enzyme for the production of propyl gallate by transesterification.

Based on the results obtained from the present study it is concluded that

the marine fungus Aspergillus awamori BTMFW 032 has potential for industrial

production of extracellular tannase. Garcinia a natural substrate has scope for use

as the ideal source of tannin for maximal tannase production. The characteristics of

tannase recognized during the course of this study revealed the extreme acidic

nature of the enzyme which has immense scope for exploitation in several

applications. Further the stability of the enzyme observed over a wide range of

temperature and other characteristics observed with the enzyme adds further

evidence to its potentiality for industrial applications. Further studies on tea cream

solubilisation and synthesis of propyl gallate testify the potentiality of the enzyme

for exploitation in respective industries. The results of the present study strongly

indicate ample scope for further research on the biochemistry of the enzyme,

structure elucidation and enzyme engineering towards a wide range of applications,

besides enriching the knowledge on marine enzymes. Of course there is option for

cloning and expressing the gene encoding this tannase enzyme into a domesticated

host and expression of the enzyme for industrial production. It may be noted that

this is the first report on tannase as well as gallic acid production by a marine

fungus.
